An Ode to Tom’s

A new craze in the fashion world in the last year has been Tom’s shoes. Comfortable shoes that most people find as ugly as Uggs (also one of my favorite pairs of shoes). I believe @dreamhampton once referred to them as “expensive karate shoes”. Well I love my Tom’s that the Italian bought me just before I left London. They are super comfortable, easy to slip on, and most importantly they are washable, so I can easily rinse the red African soil from its fabric. I wear them almost every single day and I am surprised by how well they’ve held up.

Another plus to Tom’s is that for every pair you buy, a pair is given to a child in a third world country. I would like to see exactly where that is. I believe it is Argentina but I am hoping that I can get them to send some shoes to children that I work with. Maybe I can get a petition going. But anywho, this post is just to say, I LOVE MY TOM’S!!! Get you a pair!
